We're doing a Sport-Tek full-zip hoodie with full-color club logo on the
back in Vintage Heather this year. That's slightly darker than normal grey.
The price is $35 which is the normal retail price, but we also get the logo
and don't pay tax or shipping.
It comes in XS to 4XL in a Men's version and Women's version. Men can also
get a Tall version for an additional $4.
We have a minimum order of 36 to fill or we don't do it at all.
Here's a link to their web site:

I have an XL sample in black which fit's me perfectly, their catalog and
some color swatches, though very small. Let me know if you want to see
them. The catalog and web site colors differ a bit. Vintage Heather is
good to allow all of the colors to really pop.
I'd like to close out orders by April 15th, so let me know soon. Payment
will be due once we confirm that we have 36 or more orders.

Thanks Mike:
We urgently need you to contact Representative Joe Atkins, Chair: Commerce
and Consumer Protection Finance and Policy, and ask him bring HF 2999 to the
committee to be heard. His email address is rep.joe.atkins(a)house.mn. HF
2999 has been referred to his committee, and we need to be proactive to make
sure it gets passed on to the floor. This has to happen ASAP.
I have a few seats open for the BJCP Tasting Exam that is being held on Sunday, April 13th starting at 10 am. The test site is in Minneapolis. Please email me privately if you are interested for more details.

Please take a moment to contact Joe Atkins, as well as your own
congressfolk.
Here's a website to help you find out the names of your state legislators:

Pass this along to your club members and other MN Homebrewers.

Subject: Call to Action - MN homebrewing legislation
Dear Brett, John, Gera, Dave, Al, Chris and Matt:
I am writing about HF 2999 regarding homebrewing. The legislative process
is beginning to heat up, and we've been told we need to contact
Representative Joe Atkins, Chair of the House Commerce and Consumer
Protection Finance and Policy, and ask him to support the bill as well.
His email address is rep.joe.atkins(a)house.mn. HF 2999 has been referred to
his committee, and we need to be proactive to make sure it gets passed on to
the floor.
My Representative (Tom Anzelc) introduced the legislation, and has been very
supportive, but he cannot carry it alone. As a member of the Boreal Brewers
of Grand Rapids, MN, I am doing all I can to get the word out. It testified
before the Senate Commerce Committe last week, and that went well. We need
to keep the momentum moving forward.
I see you guys have posted a nice call to action on your web page.
Thanks for doing that, we really appreciate it. We ask that you follow up
and send an email to your members urging them to contact their
representatives.
This will be the best chance we have to get progressive home brewing
legislation passed, and we need as many brewers as possible to help. I
would appreciate it if you could BCC me on any emails of support, so we can
verify that contacts are being made.
Thanks again for what you have already done, and thanks in advance for the
extra effort to help get HF2999 and SF2604 approved.

Folks, this seems to be important. It appears that it is not legal for us
to bring homebrew outside our household. I'm not sure if it's specifically
illegal to do so, but this effort is aimed at making sure that it is
specifically allowed.
Other states have had similar issues. In Oregon, they had to cancel the
state fair competition a few years ago, because it was illegal to transport
homebrew. They've since changed their laws.
Please take a few minutes and contact your representatives. It doesn't have
to be a long email, quantity of comments is more important.
Thanks!

Subject: Call to Action - MN homebrewing legislation
Dear Eric, Mike, Steven, Anna and Keith
I am writing to you in regards to important legislation that was recently
introduced in the Minnesota Legislature regarding home brewing. As you may
know, existing Minnesota law does not explicitly allow for homebrew to be
served for anything other than "family use."
My club, the Boreal Brewers of Grand Rapids, Minn. has worked with Minnesota
State Representative Tom Anzelc and State Senator Tom Saxhaug to introduce
identical bills in the House (HF2999) and Senate (SF2604) that, if passed,
would explicitly allow for homemade beer and wine to be used for organized
affairs, exhibitions, tastings and competition.
We need homebrewers from all corners of the state to contact their
legislators to ask them to support the bills. It is important that your
elected representatives see there is a need for the law to be changed. Who
Represents Me? <http://www.leg.state.mn.us/leg/districtfinder.aspx> is the
Minnesota Legislature web site for identifying those legislators who
represent you. I recall a MN senator a few years back stating that if they
get ten letters on a topic they sit up and take notice; if they get fifty,
they're amazed.
We also need you to contact Representative Joe Atkins, Chair: Commerce and
Consumer Protection Finance and Policy, and ask him to support the bill as
well. His email address is rep.joe.atkins(a)house.mn. HF 2999 has been
referred to his committee, and we need to be proactive to make sure it gets
passed on to the floor.
You can help by contacting your brew club members and urging them to contact
their representatives. When contacting your legislators, it is not
important to write a novel, instead, just a quick note asking them to
support the home brewing bills that were introduced this spring.
We have more information about the proposed changes at our website:
www.borealbrewers.com. We also have some talking point for including in
correspondence with them.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Thanks for helping us get the word out and supporting this important
legislation.
Relax and Have a Homebrew.

OK next JAb meeting is this Friday at my place (1966 Fountain Lane in Waconia.) Usual time of 6:30 or so to start. I will be giving a short talk on beer cellaring with a small Bigfoot Barleywine vertical to go along with it. If anyone has a bottle or two of this year's vintage, that would be VERY useful! The mash paddle will be up for English and American barleywines so bring one if you have it! See you folks then!
